The standard, every-day meter that you'll find most guys in the US using is the Fluke T5-600 or the T5-1000. Volts, amps, and ohms... just the basics. About 99 dollars in the US. I'm curious to know if they even sell it in the UK. It's a real workhorse over here. Pretty indestructible, and lets your keep your other nice, specialty meters safely tucked away for special use.
